I'm trying to update my RPi but keep giving me an error:
failed to fetch some archives maybe run apt-get update or try with ..fix.missing?
But the problem is when I run apt-get update
still nothing changes.
What can I do to fix it?

Try running sudo apt-get update
.
Your OS could also be out of date and need an upgrade. Try sudo apt-get upgrade
Perhaps your problem is that you do not have an internet connection. Try running ping www.google.com
and see if that works, or if you cannot do that.
You probably need to run apt-get update -f
to fix this error.
and you could also make a habit of updating through the raspi-config
utility, apparently it handles more updates than just the apt-get.
